Conservative group: We won’t give up fight for marriage vote in Iowa Senate

"A conservative group says it has only begun to fight for a vote of
the people on marriage equality, despite a failed attempt to force a vote in
the Iowa Senate today.

“'We can only interpret the action by the Senate Democrats this
morning as a vote against marriage and the people’s right to vote on
our constitution,' said a written statement from Chuck Hurley and Danny
Carroll of the Family Leader.

"Hurley and Carroll said they know the debate about rules was confusing.

“'Supposedly this has never been done in the last 40 years of Senate
history and tradition,' the statement says, referring to overriding the
majority party leader.

“'We all understand the importance of tradition in our families and
communities. However, the tradition of marriage as designed and created
by God trumps any of the traditions of man, including the Iowa Senate.'

"A post-script added: 'We have only begun to fight. Stay tuned for the next round, and pray for justice!'”
